Have you updated to v20 firmware? If not, this is a good reason to do so IMO.

hi all,

i know what u guyz are talkin bout but i haf no idea how to set dis up...
i hav v20 already can someone explain ohw i set tis up please?

[Casperuk]

go into Galley.

then home networking.

if you have allowed access to your media through orb or WMP11 then it should show up after the home networking section has refreshed.

the problem i have is i haven't debranded my phone. is it really worth doing it?

[hari623]

It's not in gallery any more since v20. Can't remember where it was as I've moved all my menus around. It's not hard to find: it's a little house with an aerial called "Home Media".

i have just updated will check this out.

Whoever can't find it, use the search from active standby and enter "Home Media".

Alternatively go to Menu>Tools>Connectivity>Home Media (position 4 in that menu).

done this last night and is slow to get going but when it does it's great, no skipping or anything

[argh]

I agree that it's slow. Are people sure that it's streaming? The amount of time it takes makes me think that it's just copying the file across and playing it...

Is any of the other functionality working with Windows Media Player (or any other cheap/free media players)? Such as:

1) Being able to play media from the phone on the PC by browsing from the PC. I can see WMP shared library in the N95 browser, but not the N95 in WMP.

2) Being able to select a remote device on which to play music. WMP doesn't appear to be displayed when the N95 searches for such devices.

[Casperuk]

i think it's the way the n95 handles the stream, my PS3 picks out the same file a lot faster. might be something to do with processor speed.

[Casperuk]

anyone else getting a problem where the home media doesn't save thier wep/wpa key and keeps asking for it every damn time they try and access the server?

Look for it in the Access Point List!
